Everything we do affects other people.

I've often thought that my lack of intimacy with those around me is the fault of those around me.

At the time I perceived most religious men, particularly the pastors with all their talk about love, faith and relationship, as effeminate.

I did not want to reject religion as nonsense because life seemed to have no ultimate purpose without it, and most of the good people I knew were Christians.

I teethed on books of heroes such as Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln and King David.

If 'Black Balloon' had come out before 'The Mummy,' casting agents wouldn't have been able to see me for the first time in 'The Mummy.' But now that 'The Mummy' has come out before 'The Black Balloon,' that's a very good combination.

I have decided to follow in my sinful ways, and have largely abandoned the increasingly religious life I was leading over the previous months, including several hours of Talmudic study a day.
